Muslims in CIA World Factbook

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

As the big disclaimer (stating the contrary) indicates, this is a WP:POVFORK of Islam by country. Forking an article is not the way to fix content disputes. Possibly userfy. Contested PROD. Sandstein 21:08, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Userfy - This sounds like something that should be done in userspace, not main space. If the user doesn't want it in his userspace, then delete.  -Chunky Rice 21:19, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Userfy per Chunky Rice; otherwise delete. --Moonriddengirl 21:24, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Userfy or delete per Chunky Rice. It certainly looks like a fork to me, and I don't think mainspace is the place for it. -- B figura (talk) 01:01, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Move to userspace or delete per above users. -- Hdt 83   Chat 22:33, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Userfy or delete per above - should have been speedied. Even as an article this would be a clear violation of WP:NOT. --Strothra 01:24, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Under what criterium for speedy deletion? Sandstein 06:55, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
 * The word you are looking for is "criterion." The answer would be that it's a housekeeping task to remove redundant articles and something that is obviously meant to be in userspace particularly since the user is new to Wiki. --Strothra 15:48, 1 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete garbage, POVfork, poorly sourced, horribly written propaganda. Shouldn't even exist as userspace, as it is propaganda.-- Sef rin gle Talk 07:15, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
 * How so? It's just a bad fork of a statistics article. I can't see any propaganda. Sandstein 07:22, 1 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Note: This debate has been included in the list of Islam-related deletions.   — Sef rin gle Talk 07:16, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment: The author of the article has left a long comment on the talk page of this discussion. He seems to agree to userfication. Sandstein 06:01, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Strongest Delete CIA world fact book can be inaccurate and there is already a duplicate article based on this entry Islam by country. --SkyWalker 14:47, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
